\nThe longer you go between washes, the better<\/em>
\n\u2714\ufe0f Answer: Blather!<\/strong>
\nThink about your scalp as an extension of your skin. In much the same way you wouldn\u2019t want days of makeup or sunscreen to build up on your face, sebum and oil (which naturally coat your cuticle and keep hair feeling soft) can gather on your scalp, along with dead, flaky skin. The combo not only makes hair look greasy, but can actually cause scalp itch and odor. Best to ditch that every four-to-five day wash schedule (especially if you exercise, and\/or have fine hair); and try to hit the suds every three days instead. The only exception? If your hair is super coarse in texture. (See info, below.)<\/p>\n

\nWashing your hair can promote growth<\/em>
\n\u2714\ufe0f Answer: Lather!<\/strong>
\nWhen you shampoo your hair, you typically massage the scalp \u2013 and that action tends to stimulate the roots of the hair, helping to increase blood flow and encourage new growth.<\/p>\n

\nCurly hair never needs washing as often<\/em>
\n\u2714\ufe0f Answer: Blather!<\/strong>
\nEvery head of hair — and every hair texture — is different. Sure, those with coarse, thick curls often have drier hair than other types (it\u2019s harder for the natural oils to inch their way into all the coils and waves); and may be able to get away with waiting five to six days between washes. But if you have curly hair that\u2019s also fine, you\u2019ll need to shampoo more frequently.<\/p>\n

\nYou can train your hair to need fewer washings<\/em>
\n\u2714\ufe0f Answer: Lather!<\/strong>
\n\u201cYou don\u2019t have to wash your oily hair every day,\u201d says Joico Global Brand Ambassador, Larisa Love. Here\u2019s why: You\u2019re essentially setting up a pattern in which your scalp knows it\u2019s going to be washed, so it produces excess oils. Once you retrain it to respond to a less-frequent cleansing schedule, the problem of greasy hair diminishes. And that\u2019s the point at which you can stretch your washes to every three days or so (max).<\/p>\n

\nWashing your hair too infrequently can make it \u201churt\u201d<\/em>
\n\u2714\ufe0f Answer: Lather!<\/strong>
\nScalp pain from dirty hair really is a thing. All those oils accumulate around the hair shaft and can promote an overgrowth of yeast on the scalp. Sometimes, you\u2019ll notice itchiness, redness, or flaking; but many people actually feel an aching sensation (not unlike the kind you get from wearing a tight ponytail).[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1672637910768{margin-top: 30px !important;margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_separator][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1672637797459{margin-top: 50px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Coming clean: pick the best shampoo for you\u2026” font_container=”tag:p|font_size:22px|text_align:center|line_height:1″ text_transform=”cesis_text_transform_uppercase” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1673249559910{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”26883″ img_size=”large”][vc_column_text]Fine hair:<\/em> HydraSplash Hydrating Shampoo<\/a> with Coconut Water and Sea Kelp<\/p>\n
